Bath re-enamelling for Hainford homes

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hainford

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repair or replace in Hainford?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Hainford

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
